The infant’s dedicated team have been caring for him 24/7 since he was born on December 24, 2021. He’s spending most of his days in the orangutan building getting to meet the rest of the orangutan group through visual introductions. The infant continues to gain weight and his care team are providing him with more exercise opportunities to encourage him to build up his grip strength and stamina.
